Love letters to the city, written in orange, gold, and green. Sure the ink will fade tomorrow or the next day, and next year it's face will look different with its new laughter lines and modern aging. But after being piled away in a drawer and forgotten, the stack of the same smile year after year becomes a flipbook into a lingering past, where the eyes hint at old struggles still being carried. Mo
Flipping a coin each morning lately to find out which Dallas we're going to get later that day.
Flavors of the season, if tasted by air.
Yes, those 5 were going like 35 m's per h and enjoying themselves a leisurely morning commute, apparently.
Reflection legitimizes.
You can't become a better version of yourself by being mean to yourself.
In the city's absence of rivers, mountains, and canyons, we've chosen to make our own.
Head out to shoot the liveliest scenes that a day can make, and you may often find moments that question the very nature of reality. I believe it was real because I pulled them off an SD card eventually, and a whole pile of shots and BTS vids are stored on a computer until they're unearthed again, but there's still that essence of disbelief from whether that was a dream or whether it really happened.
It may be a bit early in the leaf color change cycle to start putting the Fall 2022 work out in public view, but if I don't start today there's a risk it'll be Christmas and I'll still be stuck on the prior season's song & dance routine! Dallas is absolutely gorgeous so far this year!
Didn't schedule a condo viewing exactly in this unit, with this southerly view, precisely when the afternoon lighting was perfect on Turtle Creek, juuuuust to sneak a Fall photo out of there, but I sure didn't put in an offer on the place either. Not sure if the leasing agent was suspicious at all... then again it probably wasn't the first time for it either?
Habits of shooting the same photo in Dallas as time goes along - nowadays I look at these as time capsules of how much the city is its own living and breathing creature. What was a parking lot is now a building, old developments are now a giant hole in the ground. Next year it'll be a steel and concrete skeleton, and soon enough this photo spot will be obstructed and diminished... a future visual relic of a short window in the city growing up.
Trouble-making... but only doing so in the pursuit of beauty. It's not an excuse, it's a mindset.

City in stealth mode, like trying to sneak a girl in when the parents are asleep. Moon is the obnoxiously loud dog excited to greet their new best friend. The dog is just happy to meet a human who seemingly also can't figure out doorknobs either and resorts to climbing through windows. (I forget, this must have been bird migration season in July and somehow everyone decided to unplug their LEDs?)
Reimagining how a city can look (framed around an eye-blink's worth of time that it looks that way). That's the strategy I take when composing the photos mentally and plotting the order in which they get prioritized. I like photos like these the best for the season, because it's a photo I'd never actively seek out if the foreground and midground accents were the default static greens. But in it's chaotic wardrobe change, the whole scene becomes something far less serious about itself - and for once the drab beiges and neutrals of risk-averse building owners actually sits well behind the excitement of the transition.
